System Setup and Operation
NOTE:
page 14. Refer to this information as needed during initial setup and testing.
Dispensing System Setup
1. Pull the air regulator adjustment knob out until it clicks into the unlocked position. Start with the pressure set to
zero.
2. Place the syringe barrel over a piece of paper or test surface.
3. Unsnap the safety clip. Depress and hold the foot pedal for the remainder of this setup.
4. While resting the tip on the paper (test surface), SLOWLY turn the air pressure regulator clockwise until fluid
starts to exit from the tip.
5. Keep increasing the air pressure until you have reached the desired fluid dispensing flow rate.
NOTE:
Always use the lowest possible pressure and the largest possible tip size. The combination of the lowest
possible output pr the largest possible tip size + the longest possible dispense duration = the most
consistent and accurate deposits.
6. Release the foot pedal.
7. Retest the dispensing rate a few more times. Fine tune as required by making small changes in pressure.
8. Push the air regulator adjustment knob in to lock the setting.
